  • There are a variety of insurance providers out there, don't tell me you stopped after one go. Also how do you know it was your condition that denied everyone insurance? Did you ask everyone else about what they put down on their application? It's not cut and try because you provide us with a two minute anecdote.

  • Also, my doctor at the time told me I would have to always work for a company, unless a cure were found for diabetes. If you go to the ADA web site and search for "Individual Health Insurance Policies" you can read more about this.

    While it is true that other people could have had this effect on the resulting quote for a premium:

    1) My employer decided not to pursue any more options (his right);

    2) I could not afford other options I looked into, before settling on student insurance.

  • The day may come when YOU need help you can't afford. Maybe your child will need a brain tumor surgically removed and you just don't nave the money. Poor you if everyone else has your attitude.

  • alrighty, then vote for hillary and she will rob me of my hard earned dollar and give it to you to pay for your medical bills

  • Very eloquently said. I'm glad to hear from someone who can express their opinion intelligently. Good Job!

  • Way to go on your video. It's time we ALL educated ourselves on what is going on around us...We cant be influenced by the bias mainstream media who will tell us what they want us to know....ITS TRUE!

  • thanx for sharing your story! my dad has diabetes too but he doesn't have health insurancce so he's doing the best he can (the natural way) of fighting it. It's really sad if we put money before ppl's lives

  • Excellent video! There is another insidious and malicious reality.

    The public is not informed that fathering babies past the age of 31-32 will cause more genetic disorders in offspring or future generations. No one will talk about the truth of the cause of non-familial autism, schizophrenia, diabetes, MS, cancers because they make big bucks from all the various disorders that escalate in children of older fathers. There actually is PR to encourage older fathering of babies as glamourous.

  • bravo! Your absolutely right!

  • People do not understand about pre-existing conditions. HIPAA does not cover this, if you have a pre-existing condition then they can refuse you if you go one day without coverage from job to job unless you keep Cobra, Cobra is so expensive that it is almost impossible for some people to pay for it. For me and my two sons it was over 800 dollars a month. Great video! Very informative.
